Folk Field Trip: Guided Nature Walk and Litter Pick- RSVP
Date and time
11.30am, Sunday 17th July, Mule
About this event
Get your trainers on, and join us to explore the newly restored, and very local, Headstone Manor Park, to learn about the incredible wildlife and natural habitats there and the ecological measures in place to sustain the environment, and local community.
We will meet in Mule, before taking the short 20 minute walk to the park. Situated on 23 hectares of green space – once the much larger, ancient ‘Heggeston’ farm, which was first recorded from 1300 and used to supply the City of London with food - the park is now designated a Site of Importance for Nature Conservation.
Hosted by the Friends of Headstone Manor Park team, you'll receive a 2 hour guided tour of the wetlands and park, talking about natural habitats and wildlife found there. You'll hear about the restoration project, completed in 2021, and the work being done to help prevent pollution running into rivers, and to reduce risk of flooding for local communities.
Throughout the walk, residents will be able to help maintain the park, by taking part in a litter pick.
Following the walk, we'll enjoy tea and biscuits with the Friends of Headstone Manor Park team at the Pavillion. What a Sunday!
